-

VILLANELLE’S back in lurid bubblegum pink, as well as back on the sofa, after famously wearing that Molly Goddard-designed oversized extravagan­za of a chiffon dress on the psychoanal­yst’s couch in series one.

Unsurprisi­ngly, in a costume like this, she’s about to kill. Mitchell’s brief was to make the outfit as cute as possible ‘as what she’s doing is quite grotesque’. She adds: ‘The whole thing became a Japanese Manga cartoon. When something is so cute it can be terrifying, it’s disconcert­ing.’
